Notes
The first we have offered for sale in along while, this is such a delicate and rare early Dinky model, issued during 1939. Nearly always found with fatigue, this example has survived remarkably well tucked away in its box – with no fatigue whatsoever!
An early issue with the green wooden roller, later issues would have plastic rollers.
This outstanding set comprises 63A Flying Boat attached to 63B Seaplane ‘Mercury’. It is finished in silver, with all delicate parts intact and that includes both original floats and propellors. No wing droop or distortion, or parts missing. Looks unused with complete clear black lettering on both planes.
Minor marking only to the silver finish.
The powder blue lift-off lid box is complete with the blue inner.
Dated 1939.
No splits. Some fading to the box lid.
A rare and sought-after early Dinky aircraft and a very difficult find in this condition.
